On May 29th, the 51st year of Kangxi, Yang Mubo, the chieftain of Kaihua Prefecture, raised 20,000 troops and broke through Kaihua Prefecture, Guixi Prefecture and Guangnan Prefecture.
The Yi chieftains of Ami Prefecture and Shiping Prefecture in Lin 'an Prefecture, the Miao chieftains of Malong Prefecture in Qujing, Xingyi Prefecture in Guizhou Province, and Pu' an Hall in Guizhou Province respectively raised their troops to respond. In an instant, the number of rebel soldiers in the southwest exceeded 70,000.
On the 30th day of the 5th month, Yang Mubo broke through Huijiang Prefecture. On the 31st day of the 5th month, Yang Mubo met with the chieftains of Lin 'an Prefecture, Ami Prefecture, and Shiping Prefecture. They gathered 40,000 troops and arrived at Kunfu City…
It was already June 7th. Kunfu City had been taken by Yang Mubo. Gan Guobi, the governor of Diannan, had been hanged at the city gate. The rest of the Qing court officials had been killed.
The news that Yang Mubo had broken through the Kunfu Prefecture quickly spread to the southwest, and the chieftains of Pu 'er, Jingdong, Yuanjiang, and Yongchang Prefecture responded.
After Chen Bing's Governor of Lijiang Prefecture, Guo Wei, learned of the situation, he immediately gathered the troops of Lijiang Prefecture, anxious for the Mu family's young chieftain of Lijiang Prefecture to rescue Kunfu Prefecture. At the same time, he asked the Governor of Bashu, Nian Gengyao, for help.
On the 12th day of the sixth lunar month, Zhu Bomu led the soldiers of the 3,000 Battalion back to Six Zhao Mountain.
"Where's Mu Yong?"
Once he returned to Liu Zhao Mountain, Zhu Bomu hurriedly got off his horse. He didn't even bother with Li Sujun, who had rushed out to welcome him, and directly asked about the aide who was in charge of Liu Zhao Mountain.
"My lord, after General Mu failed to persuade Yang Mubo, he was worried that Yang Mubo would be defeated, so he followed Yang Mubo to the north alone. Previously, Huijiang Prefecture and Kun Prefecture were captured by General Mu.”
The advisor had a good relationship with Mu Yong. It was obvious from his explanation that Mu Yong had decided to attack the Kun Manor together with Yang Mubo after failing to persuade him.
After knowing the truth, Zhu Bomu was no longer surprised.
He was wondering why Yang Mubo was able to take down Huijiang Prefecture and Kun Prefecture in just ten days. It turned out that it was because of Mu Yong's command that he was able to do so so quickly.
Zhu Bomu turned his head to look at Shen Lian. Shen Lian immediately looked at the Hundred Households of the Jinyiwei of Mount Liuzhao who were dressed in crimson brocade robes.
The centurion understood what he meant, so he immediately explained,
"The 10,000 Mongolian Eight Banners from Dongchuan Prefecture have already advanced into Kun Prefecture. Governor Guo of Yungui Prefecture has also brought 30,000 Green Army soldiers and 10,000 Mu Clan troops south. They will arrive at Kun Prefecture in about three days.”
"Fifty thousand troops?" When he heard that the Qing army had mobilized 50,000 men in just 10 days, Zhu Bomu immediately frowned. He then ordered the others to leave and brought Shen Lian into the inner county.
After entering the inner county, he immediately turned around and asked,""How are things going in Guixi, Guizhou, and Sichuan?”
"There are less than 20,000 Green Army soldiers in Western Guangxi. Most of the time, they rely on the Tusi soldiers. After Yang Mubo raised his army, the Governor of Guangdong and Guangxi gathered the Tusi soldiers and prepared to march westward, but very few Tusi soldiers responded to his call.”
"It is said that they are already mobilizing the Green Camp soldiers in Guangdong. They do not rely on the Tusi people, but directly rely on the Green Camp to advance westward. There are about 50,000 Green Camp soldiers.”
" The governor of Ba Shu, Nian Gengyao, can't take care of himself. Ce Wang and Arabtan looted Songpan Hall a few days ago. Nian Gengyao brought 20,000 Mongolian Eight Banners back to guard Songpan Hall. He only provided support for the 10,000 Mongolian Eight Banners mentioned earlier."
"In addition, after Guizhou Province received the transfer order from Governor Guo, more than 30,000 Green Army soldiers have already gone south. However, they have been blocked by the General Peace Hall and the Chieftain of Xingyi Prefecture.”
"There are only 8,000 chieftains in these two places. If the chieftains of Guiyang and Dingfan still don't raise their troops, they will probably be wiped out by the 30,000 Green Army soldiers very soon.”
"As for the chieftains of Ba Shu, none of them moved. They seemed to be observing the situation and waiting for Nian Gengyao to bring the Green Camp and the Eight Banners of Mongolia south before raising an army.”
The situation on the battlefield was very complicated. After Shen Lian finished explaining the situation in the southwest, Zhu Bomu walked to the county office and pulled open the white cloth in the middle of the office, revealing a large sand table of the southwest terrain.
Shen Lian saw this and placed the red and yellow flags that he had prepared beforehand on the sand table according to the current situation.
From the current situation, the Tusi faction led by Yang Mubo currently had three enemies.
The first was the 50,000 troops that were rushing towards the Kun Prefecture. Among them, there were 10,000 of the Eight Banners of the Mongol Empire. The second was to open up the Three Prefectures.
Now, the Governors of Guangdong and Guangxi were about to mobilize 50,000 Green Army soldiers to march eastward. They would be able to enter the easternmost Guangnan Prefecture in a month at most.
The last and most dangerous was the chieftain of Xingyi Prefecture. They would face the 30,000 men of the Qing army and the Green Camp with 8,000 men.
After thinking about it, Zhu Bomu immediately said,"
"Get someone to prepare to move the goods. Send 300 Tiger Cannons, 3,000 muskets, 50,000 jin of gunpowder, and enough stone and iron shells to the chieftain of Xingyi Prefecture!”
"So many gifts?" Shen Lian was shocked by Zhu Bomu's generosity. Zhu Bomu shook his head and said,"
"Xingyi Prefecture is only three hundred miles away from us. Once the chieftain of Xingyi Prefecture is defeated, the Green Camp of Guizhou Province will not let go of the opportunity to attack directly.”
"I understand. I will let the Jinyiwei of the Hundred Households Office in Guizhou Province inform the Chieftain of Xingyi Prefecture of the Qing army's movements!”
After he finished speaking, Shen Lian immediately cupped his fists and left. Zhu Bomu also instantly clicked on the upgrade command to upgrade the county office to a prefecture!
